If the pedal is good with pipes clamped your problem is in the hub area, Is it the same pedal travel each side i.e. if only one is clamped.

watch for mechanical movement on the caliper when the brake is operated see if anything is causing abnormal movement.

I take it you have given it a good long road test, what do brake feel like on the road ?

Would be a good idea to change discs and try pads of different brand if no already done.

Cheers Aidan
